Let's take the time to give thanks to all the soldiers who gave their lives to fight for our wonderful country.

Everyone be safe and enjoy the day!

Sweet Accessories...

I love the gladiator style sandal and Steve Madden has a pair that I need in my closet...NOW! I love the multicolored ones because it's a different look for gladiators. You usually find them in metallic colors and black & brown. These are priced at $80 on the Steve Madden website.

It's officially the summer time and that means great colored accessories. This bag I found on the Steve Madden website, its a nice bright yellow satchel style bag. Big enough to carry all your sweet summer essentials. You can find this bag on the Steve Madden website for only $58.

Bad Day Relief

A few weeks ago a friend introduced me to a website that allows people to vent about the bad things that happened in their lives. If you think you have it bad wait until you read these short stories on fmylife.com. Here are a couple of new stories that have been posted.

Today, I confronted my fiance and told him I knew his 'little secret'. I
had suspected that he had been ruining his wedding diet by eating pizza at
the office. He replied that the affair with his secretary had only been going on for
a couple of months. FML

Today, I was on the bus home and on the phone with my best friend discussing my sex life with this new guy I'm seeing. I was telling her all sorts of raunchy sex things we've done until someone taps my shoulder and says "I'm sure he doesn't appreciate you saying this in public." It was his mom. FML

There are many more stories like this. The site has topics such as: work, kids, money, sex, life, and love and more.

Tyrese causing Mayhem

Tyrese will be releasing a new comic book called "Mayhem" coming to stores August 5. You can pre-order it now for $2.99 and the first 30 buyers you will get a personal phone call from Tyrese and the first 200 will get a limited edition comic signed by the man himself.

Now I am not a comic book fan, but it does look to be very interesting. The character, Mayhem will be saving the streets of Los Angeles from the crime lord Big X. I love the idea of a black superhero saving the world. Good job, Tyrese. For more info check out buymayhem.com.

We'll Always Love Big Poppa

Today rapper Notorious B.I.G would have been 36 years old. We lost him back in '97 but his life & music still lives on! I wonder what the rap game would be like now if he was still alive.

Skys The Limit (Featuring 112) - The Notorious B.I.G.

Also R.I.P to Atlanta rapper Dolla. He was shot & killed earlier this week at Los Angeles mall. Dolla was signed to Akon's label Konvict Music and had the sweet hit "Who the F*** is That" last summer that blew up the airwaves. This is such a tragic story because he was only 21 and a rapper with a promising future. This violence has got to stop!

She Rockin' That "Chain" Like...

What a better way to start the daily sweet accessory than with the beautiful Bey! She was in Barcelona, with the hubby Jay, rocking a sweet diamond encrusted signature "B" chain! A nice simple item like that can add so much to your outfit. Pure sweetness, I would love to have a "R" chain that big around my neck. What about you? Sweet or Sour?

Sweet Umbrella

I just recently stumbled on a unique clothing site modcloth.com and found that they have really nice clothes and very unique accessories. While I was looking at the accessories I noticed they had an umbrella very similar to the one I own & love. I purchased mine at a boutique in SC and it is very similar to this except my handle is clear and makes a very odd circular shape. The "Strawberry Shortcake" umbrella is sold out on the site and was priced at $27.99. I love unique things that stand out! Whenever I carry this umbrella I always receive many compliments on its uniqueness.

It's Official

After months of speculation the very popular TV show on CW network "The Game" is cancelled. It's a very sad day in the Black community. Many blog sites have been claiming to have the "inside scoop" for weeks now but minutes ago on Twitter Tia Mowry made this statement:

It is OFFICIAL that THE GAME has been cancelled:( Just got the call from Mara! I am sad to bring this news!

-via @TiaMowry

Whenever a network moves a show to Friday nights you already know that the next step for the show is to get axed so I'm not surprised, but I do believe that this is really crazy after all the support they have been trying to raise for the show & the number of viewers they received for the season finale last Friday, I cannot believe they would go on and cancel it. This is one of the best shows on televison, I guess now we will just have to settle for the repeated re-runs on BET. CW network also cancelled "Everybody Hates Chris" as well.

the Palm Pre

Sprint has finally released the date for the "most anticipated electronic device of the year". The Palm Pre will be released Saturday June 6 and will bee $200 (after mail-in rebate) with a 2 yr contract, I am very excited about this. I already have the Palm Centro that came out in 2007 and I love the Palm devices, I have never had any technical problems with my phone so I know this phone is going to be great! The Pre is being compared to AT & T's iPhone and Verizon's Blackberry Storm. This phone has raised the slumming Palm stock up tremendously. You will be able to buy this phone at Sprint and Best Buy stores on the release dates. Best Buy is said to be giving an instant mail-in rebate to those who purchase the phone from their store. But Sprint is concerned that they will not have enough phones to their customers due to the high demand of the phone, so I am hoping that I will be able to get mine, I refuse to wait outside in any type of line, I'm too cute for that! I have my sprint lady emailing me all the insider info for the phone, and she just emailed saying that there will be a pre-release of the Palm Pre Friday June 5 and this event is invite only to Sprint's Premier Customers. If you are with Sprint the email should read:

As a Sprint Premier customer, you are exclusively invited to the hottest
wireless launch party. Mingle with celebs and enjoy hors d'oeuvres, wine, and
music while taking the Palm Pre for a spin on America’s most dependable 3G
network. Plus, you will be able to purchase the Pre at the event before it hits
the street.

I don't think regular people like me will be receiving that email, but it would be nice if it just popped up in my inbox. A girl can only dream!
